The Hillside Singers

Biography & Overview

The Hillside Singers were an American folk pop group. The ensemble was created by advertising agency McCann Erickson to sing in a television commercial. McCann Erickson had written the jingle "I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing (In Perfect Harmony)" for Coca-Cola, and had sought to have the New Seekers sing it, but that group could not fit the project into their schedule and turned it down.
